What is Sky Broadband Boost? What features it offer?

sky broadband boostSky Broadband has added a new feature to all of its Internet plans to provide customers with the best service with faster speeds and an easy way to manage home Internet usage.

Sky Broadband Boost costs an extra £2.50 per month and can be added as an option on Broadband Essential and Broadband Superfast packages.

According to Sky, the add-on will cost £5 a month after 18 months, and can be renewed (optional) when the 18-month contract expires.

What does Sky Broadband Boost offer?

Sky will ensure its customers get faster speeds on their lines and will monitor them on a daily basis. With daily checks, Sky will immediately fix any issues that are causing slow and unreliable broadband speeds.

Sky will notify the customer of the problem before an engineer comes to the door and arrange for the on-site service at a time convenient for the customer.

It has controls to pause the internet for one person or the whole house. It includes settings to control time limits and content for all family members.

It can also help adults monitor children’s internet usage and find the location of connected devices.

The app can be installed on Android and iPhone devices for WiFi and mobile broadband (3G or 4G).

Free mobile data

In the event of an internet failure, Sky also offers 2GB of free mobile data if the customer has Sky Mobile account.
